This cranesbill is an improved form of Geranium cantabrigiense ‘Biokovo’ which holds the white flowers for longer before ageing to pink. It is an Alan Bremner hybrid, bred and named in Orkney. A cross between G. dalmaticum ‘Album’ and G. macrorrhizum ‘Album’ with evergreen, deep glossy green leaves, which are aromatic. It grows well in most soils, is low growing and forms good ground cover. We find it stays evergreen with us but may be semi-evergreen in colder areas. Pot size 1.5 litre.
Care & Maintenance.
This cranesbill is very easy to manage. Remove old overwintered leaves in spring, tidying up any damaged by winter weather. Propagate by division in spring. Pest and disease resistant.

My order of these charming geraniums arrived in very good order. They had been packaged with great care.
I already have a border full of St Ola so I know what a good ground cover it makes. Very low, fresh green leaves that turn russet in the Autumn. The pure white flowers are held well above the foliage and last for 3-4 weeks in June/July. The new batch will make ground cover for a bed of white roses.
